It presents a comprehensive typology of these relations, applying it to analyze the most significant institutionalized connections between local government and societal actors in 22 European countries. Through a comparative approach, the book aims to ascertain whether patterns can be identified in the composition of different types of networks, whether these patterns are country-specific or policy-specific, and why certain cases exist that defy classification under a specific pattern. By examining these factors, the book seeks to go beyond national typologies and emphasize the crucial role of agency and innovation in specific policy sectors. This insightful work will appeal to scholars and students of local governance, public administration, urban planning, and European studies, providing valuable insights into the complex dynamics of local governance in Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 632g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 217 x 153 x 28 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031149993\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103463829754,"sku":"9783031149993","price":93.93,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1677855068581_book.jpg?v=1678175110","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/perspectives-on-local-governance-across-europe-insights-on-local-statesociety-relations-9783031149993","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
